Mind Blowing Guinness-Infused Recipes

With St. Patrick's Day coming up, we only thought it was fitting to round up some insanely amazing recipes using our favorite Irish beer, Guinness. Now these aren't any average recipes. Think along the lines of seriously mind blowing. Seriously.

Would you ever think to put beer in your chocolate pie? What about in your stew or gravy? This gallery will make you rethink many of your recipes to see how you can incorporate Guinness, or any beer for that matter.

You can enjoy Guinness alone of course, but why not give it a whirl with a dollop of coffee ice cream, chocolate syrup, salted peanut and whipped cream? Say what!

For all you non-Canadians (that includes me), poutine is a dish from Quebec that is made with french fries, gravy and cheese. Kind of like our version of disco fries in the states. This version might be one of my favorites that I have seen because the gravy is made with Guinness.

This isn't your average chocolate ice cream. It's creamed together with a bottle of Guinness Ale and a package of Starbucks hot chocolate mix. I'd love to try it with some caramel drizzled on top too!
